Eat, Drink and Be Merry...

Happy Mardis Gras! or Fat Tuesday! or Shrove Tuesday! take your pick.

With Ash Wednesday's message of mortality looming, Shrove Tuesday is prescribed as a day to feast on pancakes, eat up fats, oils and sweets and clear the pantry of any foods that will 'distract' us from our season of simplicity, humilty and repentance.

Don't worry though, you're not required to give up pancakes to follow this blog.
